It was closer than I care to admit last time. I've been extremely stressed this week as I was worried about the ulez expansion vote.

I don't have any favoured party tbh but I'm extremely relieved

Yeah, I was worried their misinformation, combined with understandable frustration with some of Labour's actual policies, would swing it to the Tories.

and Labour were already rehearsing their “we never needed London anyway, it’s too full of wokeness and antisemitism, anyway we have the REAL England now” soundbites, anticipating that Hall would get it because of progressive voters staying home or blowing their votes on the Green Party.

A salutary reminder that humans can hallucinate things better than any bot.
